Cult of the Lamb Summons Next Major DLC, Woolhaven, for Early 2026
The indie phenomenon Cult of the Lamb continues its reign, announcing its next major expansion, Woolhaven, during Gamescom 2025. This new content is slated to arrive early next year and will be a paid addition, though a specific price point has not yet been revealed. This follows a series of successful free updates that have expanded the game since its 2022 debut.
Woolhaven will challenge players with an entirely new region to explore, a perilous mountain zone. This frostbitten landscape is not for the faint of heart, housing two fresh dungeons filled with new threats to conquer. The area is also plagued by a spreading corruption known as Rot, adding another layer of danger to the expedition. True to the game’s narrative style, the expansion will present players with difficult moral choices regarding the mountain’s inhabitants, offering no clear-cut right or wrong answers.
The challenges are not limited to the dungeons. The harsh climate of the new mountain will directly impact the player’s settlement back home. Blizzards and freezing temperatures will sweep through, testing the faith of your followers and creating new crises to manage as the cult’s seemingly infallible leader. Keeping your flock devout and content in the face of these new environmental hardships will be a crucial task.
To help counter these new struggles, Woolhaven introduces a ranching system. This new mechanic allows players to raise and care for rare animals. This is not merely a cosmetic addition; successful ranching provides vital resources for the cult’s survival, including wool and food. Perhaps most notably, some of these creatures can even be used as mounts, offering a sweet new ride for the Lamb on their crusades.
The announcement solidifies the ongoing support for Cult of the Lamb, ensuring its dedicated community of players will have new mysteries to unravel and doctrines to enforce well into the future.
